Less Grid Boxes on the Bed on Mini Prusa vs MK4 in Prusa Slicer 2.9.4

I've used the MK4 and there are many grid boxes within the 12 larger boxes on the bed viewing in the Prusa Slicer 2.9.4

There's only 16 large boxes in the viewer in that same Prusa Slicer 2.9.4

Are you only given those 16 larger squares when the mini-Prusa is  the chosen printer?

reddit and Googled results suggest making all the sorts of settings  changes but before I do that maybe it's just a matter that the mini-Prusa has such a small bed all the other squares within those 16 boxes are not needed for the mini-Prusa?

Thank you for your insights and help.

RE:

I assume you are refering to the dashed/dotted lines in the print bed visible in the slicer in preview window?

The print size area and volume in the Mini and MK4 differ, and Mini is smaller.

In addion by default PrusaSlicer presents different texture on the print bed in the preview, and those textures are as in real life, but the fac the boxes may be different in size can additionally alter how the print area is perceived - it does not have to be square, and the size are different on the Mini ans MK4. So do not relay on the markers entirely, because they are merely to more easily place objects in the bed, so you can assume where they should be before print so you could use additional cleaning or avoiding touching those areas 😉

See my GitHub and printables.com for some 3d stuff that you may like.
